About Latrice

Latrice Scott is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 13 years of experience in the counseling field. She also holds a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) credential. Latrice lists stress, anxiety, anger, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, parenting, sleep problems, ADHD, and relationship and family concerns among the issues she addresses.

She trained at Webster University, earning master’s degrees in Mental Health Counseling and School Counseling in 2012. Her background includes work in residential settings, outpatient clinics, in-home care, and substance abuse treatment programs. That variety informs how she structures sessions and sets goals.

Latrice’s style emphasizes a person-centered approach. She focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and on practical steps they can try between sessions. Conversations are focused and goal-oriented rather than abstract or academic.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help identify unhelpful thinking and change patterns that feed anger, anxiety, or low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills appear in her work around emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Solution-Focused and Motivational Interviewing techniques guide short-term planning and building motivation for change.

Sessions draw on tools that match the presenting concern, such as coping skills for anger, sleep routines for insomnia, or motivational techniques for substance use. Latrice aims to help people recognize practical next steps and practice them between sessions.

To begin, readers should use the site’s matching flow to describe goals and schedule an initial appointment. She offers services in English and accepts international clients, so confirm session options when booking.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

CBT helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Online work using CBT often focuses on short exercises, thought records, and homework tasks that can be reviewed in the next session. It is commonly used for anxiety, anger, and low mood.

DBT provides skills for managing strong emotions and tolerating distress. In remote sessions these skills are taught and practiced through role-play, breathing and grounding techniques, and step-by-step plans to handle intense moments.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then collaborate on which techniques to prioritize. That means adjusting strategies as things change rather than locking into one method.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available formats before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. If you want targeted work on anger, sleep, or motivation, discuss how to structure sessions and short practical tasks that can be used between appointments.
